Anyone done this?

#1 Post by Stargate199 » Sun Feb 11, 2007 4:06 pm

So call me a nerd, but I am building a desktop for the purpose of making it into a Dance Dance Revolution machine. I am using a program called Stepmania. It is a completely free DDR game for all computers (PC, Linux, and OS X). The computer is only a Pentium II, but will have a GeForece 4 graphics card in it. I have access to a DDR dance pad, and am trying to acquire a PS2 or XBOX controller to USB adapter to make this all work. The video card does have TV out. This is a fun little project for me, since I do like DDR. Just wanted to know if anyone has tried to anything like this before. I will post pics of the setup when the machine is operational.
I have finally rejoined the dark side.

That's sort of coll, I guess. Right now the machine is very loud due to an old cooling fan. I have a quieter one in my boxes of computer parts i need to fish out. This would be more fun with a small form factor computer, but I don't have one. Oh well.

That's a TKO where I come from! I was about to download Stepmania and order a ps2 to usb adapter for my fiancés dance pad, but I don't think playing this game+being with child mix.
